HecklesForget the drunk bloke at the back yelling incoherent nonsense. Sometimes a well placed heckle can raise a mediocre act to a brilliant night out.
Tell us your best heckles and, if you are brave, the retorts that put you back in your place like the maggot you are.

Production of the play Peter Pan at the National Theatre, about 8 years ago.Right at the end of the play there is a moment where Peter comes back to the nursery and discovers the now grown up Wendy's daughter fast asleep. He takes out his dagger and holds it above the innocent sleeping child's head poised to act his revenge on Wendy for growing up. It's a tense and quite dark moment and the whole theatre was silent. Apart from, that is, a small girl in the back of the Circle, who was obviously very caught up in Peter's thought process and shouted, very clearly "DO IT!". Much laughter from the rest of the audience.
